Does anybody ever wonder why Jim Henson didn't direct The Muppet Movie? I thought that Jim Henson would have wanted to be a film director, yet for the Muppets big-screen debut, James Frawlry, who as far as I know had no previous experience with The Muppets, directed it. One of the muppet...

Some of my favorites include..... *Fozzie practicing to be a telephone pole. *Kermit firing Miss Piggy. *Fozzie telling Kermit that Gonzo has perfected half of his motorcycle jump (the take-off half.. the landing still needs work). *Gonzo and Madeline Kahn singing The Wishing Song...

Eh, a few weeks ago I started to notice that most official sources for the release of this set came from info provided by e-mail from Sesame Workshop, rather than official press releases.

Learning About Letters is my favorite Sesame Street video about the alphabet. Though it was made in 1986, none of the segments are from the 1980s. Most are either from 1969 or the early 1970s. And it features almost every main Muppet character from 1986, with the exceptions of The Count and...

Jerry Nelson performed Rupunzel. The Announcer appeared off-screen, so it's not like he was busy performing another character.

I can't really tell the difference between good and bad puppetry much (unless the bad puppetry is intentional), but I wonder how Spinney was able to be so good as Oscar. Of course, during the first season whenever Oscar was in his trash can Spinney had to perform Oscar with his left hand instead...
